Chapter 237 - Ch. 237 Kaylee Is A Leader?



Arriving at Declan's house, Roxy grabbed Declan's hand and sat on the long comfortable sofa. She demanded an explanation on Declan.

"Tell me. When did Nick call you? And why would he choose to look for you over me?"

"He paid a visit last night."

"Last night? Aren't I always with you?"

"You're still sleeping, and I couldn't bear to wake you up in the middle of the night," Declan replied in a witty tone as he brushed his nose against her.

"So?" and yet, Roxy was more interested in hearing Declan's continuation than making out with the man.

"He said he would give me some valuable information if I were willing to help him. He wants me to make sure his father… Hades doesn't touch his sweetheart while he's not here."

"Who is his girlfriend?"

"Your make-up artist."

"Lydia!?" Roxy covered her mouth with both hands and widened her eyes in disbelief.

What? Nick is really after Lydia, and the two are dating??

Is Wendy a fortune-teller? How could her best friend be so sure that her brother liked a girl?

"I don't know if I should be happy or angry."

"Why?" asked Declan, curious about what his wife was thinking right now.

He had no idea that the news that Nicholas Larson had won the heart of his wife's make-up artist would be such a shock to Roxy.

"I feel happy that Nick has finally found his love. I also feel glad that Lydia doesn't have to carry all the burdens on her own. Although she seemed to be smiling from the outside, that girl hid all her stress and suffering. She is a bit similar to Nicholas. That's exactly what I'm worried about when the two of them are together."

Declan smiled in amused while stroking the top of Roxy's head. "You think too much. Then, why do you feel like getting angry?"

"They just started dating, but Nick has left her? Which guy would leave his girlfriend on the first day? If I were Lydia, I would have broken up with him right away."

Declan shook his head and was grateful that he wasn't Nick and Roxy wasn't Lydia.

"I feel like Nick tricked her, and now he's tricking you. Uh, what information did he give you? Is it completely useless?"

"You are Roxanne, so this information is useless. But if you were Kaylee, maybe this information would be of little use."

"What kind of information is it?"

"Frontier Shadow."

"Ha? Didn't you ask me that earlier?" Declan nodded his head as he answers. "What's wrong with Frontier Shadow?"

"He said Kaylee was supposed to be its leader."

"What? Kaylee? A leader? Are you kidding?"

Declan chuckled in amusement at his wife's disbelieving tone. "Why do I feel you underestimate your sister?"

"I didn't mean to belittle her. But she's not a leader. Plus…" Roxy suddenly didn't continue her sentence when she remembered something.

"What is it? Why are you suddenly silent?"

"It reminded me of something. I think… she might be one."

"Why do you think so?"

"I had this feeling. She was like… a sleeping dragon. I remember a classmate of ours tore my sketchbook and threw it into the river. I was outraged and wanted to cry because the sketchbook contained my proud works."

"You cried?"

"Of course not in front of them. I cried at night when I lock myself in my room."

A faint smile was plastered on his face. "Then? What happened?"

"I took revenge on her and threw all the books that were in her bag into the same river. Then she got angry, and we fought and grabbed each other's hair."

"I can't believe I could imagine it."

Roxy pouted her lips when she heard Declan's comment. Her face was so cute that it made Declan chuckled in amused. "Go on."

"Her body is much bigger, and she has an annoying older brother standing up for her. As a result, I lost, and I was injured."

"You get hurt?"

"I was alone at that time, and coincidentally all my friends were not there to help me."

"Are you stupid? If you're alone, why are you fighting her?"

Roxy had opened her mouth to protest, but she closed her mouth because that was how she was in the past. Stupid and reckless.

"You're right. I was stupid and finally went home full of wounds. I could even still smile and show all my wounds proudly. People say, having a wound is a pride in itself."

"That's silly thinking. Are you a guy?"

Roxy folded her arms in front of her chest while sighing in annoyance. "Are you always going to comment every time I finish a sentence?"

Declan chuckled at the frustrated look on his wife's adorable face. "Okay. I will not comment. Then what happens?"

"Kaylee saw my wound and asked me who hurt me? I answered honestly without any guilt and told every name that ganged up on me." Roxy lowered her gaze and looked pensive for a moment. "The next day, I heard that the people who ganged up on me had an accident. Some died, some were in a coma for several months in the hospital. And the girl who tore my book... she no longer could walk."

"..." Declan frowned upon hearing this. "You don't think it's all Kaylee's doing, do you?"

Roxy shook her head. "Kaylee was young. She couldn't possibly do it alone."

"Alone?"

"That wasn't the first time, Declan. Every time I told Kaylee who hurt me, whether on the same day or the next day… the person who hurt me always gets worse. There was one time I didn't tell my sister…."

"Nothing happened?"

Roxy nodded her head once doubtfully. "There's no way she did it, but… I'm sure she ordered someone to do it. But I can't understand why that person did Kaylee's wishes and also… she never showed the impression of wanting to avenge someone's actions."

"..." why did Declan feel that the real Kaylee was a dangerous girl? "Maybe it's just your feelings."

"I wish so. Nevertheless, I never complained about my sister again. Instead, I always try to win all the struggles I face, and I won all those fights."

Declan smiled broadly at that.

"But… what if it turns out that Kaylee is indeed the leader of this Frontier Shadow?"

Declan's smile disappeared at his wife's question, and his brow furrowed as he took a deep breath.

"That's none of our business anymore. After all, she's already gone, but people out there believe you are Kaylee. Everything will be fine if you show up as Roxanne, but…."

"The person who targeted me is still out there too." Declan nodded his head once again in response to Roxy's guess. "Hhhh… Even though my family and I have left Hades, the two of us are still trapped in that organization. Luckily Kaylee wasn't here anymore. Otherwise, I don't know how to protect her."

"…" For some reason… Declan got the impression that Kaylee had been protecting Roxy secretly and put a weakling yet innocent appearance to fool everyone.

Frontier Shadow, huh? He will try to discover this hidden group.
